The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen state maximally violates Bell's inequalities
Hans Halvorson
In their well-known argument against the completeness of quantum theory, Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen (EPR) made use of a state that strictly correlates the positions and momenta…
Are Rindler Quanta Real? Inequivalent particle concepts in quantum field theory
Rob Clifton, Hans Halvorson
Philosophical reflection on quantum field theory has tended to focus on how it revises our conception of what a particle is. However, there has been relatively little discussion of…
Reeh-Schlieder Defeats Newton-Wigner: On alternative localization schemes in relativistic quantum field theory
Hans Halvorson
Many of the "counterintuitive" features of relativistic quantum field theory have their formal root in the Reeh-Schlieder theorem, which in particular entails that local operations…
On the nature of continuous physical quantities in classical and quantum mechanics
Hans Halvorson
Within the traditional Hilbert space formalism of quantum mechanics, it is not possible to describe a particle as possessing, simultaneously, a sharp position value and a sharp mom…
Entanglement and Open Systems in Algebraic Quantum Field Theory
Rob Clifton, Hans Halvorson
Entanglement has long been the subject of discussion by philosophers of quantum theory, and has recently come to play an essential role for physicists in their development of quant…
